Problem Space – IP RAN • The IP RAN provides connectivity for IP-based mobile broadband (MBB) from LTE and 4G base stations. • Ratio of MBB subscribers to total mobile subscribers is expected to grow from 15% in 2011 to nearly 40% in 2016 • MBB market is forecast to grow to $1 trillion by 2016, with the bulk of the growth coming from MBB services. • At the end of 2012 China Mobile 25(1) had deployed more than 500,000 nodes to support MBB services. • The size of the IP RAN network must seamlessly scale to hundreds of thousands of nodes. • Frequently splitting area as IP RAN network grows rapidly has issues 1. PTN Market Research 2013 Frost & Sullivan
Issues and Solution Splitting an area into more areas: • Significant network architecture changes, lots of time for network planning, configuration and migration • Service interruptions, thus reduce the availability of the network • Complex for end to end service creation crossing areas Solution: TTZ resolves these issues through transferring parts of an area to TTZs: • No significant network architecture change, migration to TTZ is smooth and can be automatic • No (or minimum) service interruption • Easy for end to end service creation crossing TTZs (same as before)
